The Museum of Troy History will begin opening on weekends from 1pm to 5pm beginning
June 20, 2020. Normally the museum yearly on April 1 st , but pandemic health precautions
postponed opening day in 2020.
The delayed opening has allowed for improvements to our permanent and temporary
displays. A scale model of the Public Square in Troy, created by Gail Stickelman, is now on
display. This wonderful model is not to be missed and is of interest to children and adults. Also
on display are artifacts from the practice of medicine in Troy from the late 1800’s to the late
1900’s. Many of the artifacts are from the practice of Dr. Roy Wolcott, MD, Dr. Paul Foy, MD,
and other practitioners.
The permanent displays include a parlor, foyer, and bedroom that are furnished in the
Victorian period. The kitchen is furnished with the latest 1920’s conveniences and the mockup
of a one room school house is furnished with equipment from Edwards, Kyle, and other Troy
Schools. The collection of Troy High School yearbooks allows visitors to search for students
from 1918 to 2018.
